I'd forgotten about Lush. I bumped into the lead singer (her wi' the pink hair) in the toilets at that club in Camden, the name of which I can never remember - well if I'm honest my memories of that whole period of my life are blurred to say the least!) They were great. Time for a mosey down memory lane, methinks...
That'd be Miki. I met her in Camden once too, or Chalk Farm, maybe Archway, at a Thee Headcoats (Billy Childish) gig. She was quite the indie boys dream back then.
Modern day varieties of shoegaze - Maps, School Of Seven Bells, M83.....
Or check out http://www.soniccathedral.co.uk/about.html for more. Or this http://drownedinsound.com/lists/shoegaze which has a few great reads amongst it.
Spacemen 3 get lumped in with shoegaze but I've always thought of them as beyond that scene.
